any use of aux lighting on legal streets, is generally illegal(by aux, i mean anything that didnt come with the car). but the possession of them is NOT(at least not in most states). i'd check your state traffic laws.
i know in some area's its illegal to have any lights ABOVE the headlights, that are left uncovered. in some states its illegal to have more than 2 sets of lights (headlights, and 1 other set of lights). in ny for example, its illegal to have headlights below a certain measurement(and yes, many nypd officers carry a measuring tape!)
as a side note: i had an officer notice it, and pay a compliment during a traffic stop. he seemed to know a thing or two about them.
am i worried about an officer noticing them? no. not even an bit. i use them the say way i would the highbeams. i would never purposely direct these lights into peoples eyes, as i wouldnt want someone to blind my 60yr old mother while driving. (i do see a-holes using them as if they are DRL's and it ticks me off. but then again, i see a-hole with 15,000k HID headlights too).
put it this way, most MOD's are illegal. some are worth having, some are not. these in my opinion are worth having. they really-really help with night vision on dark desolate roads.
